Lemon Porcelain as a color, what is the genetic makeup for this?

I think mille fleur with lavender is what you call lemon porcelain.

 

OK, I have no clue what makes it, but I'd LOVE to see pictures!!!! It SOUNDS yummy!

Add lavender to mille fleur and you get porcelain. The buff colour of the mille is diluted to a straw colour wile the black is diluted to a pale blue colour.

As to lemon porcelain? That would be a further dilution of the straw, presumably by Di, Cb or ig. With the straw as pale as it usually is, a further dilution seems like it would blend into the white.

 

Yummy!!!!

 

okay--I just searched to see if I could find a photo of lemon porcelain.

 

And the computer posted that reply before I was finished typing

I believe this may be another issue of a variety being called one thing in one country and something else in another.

In the US, the lavender diluted mille fleur pattern is called porcelain. In at least parts of europe the undiluted mille fleur pattern is called porcelain.

The photo that I found of "lemon porcelain" was a European bird; the buff/bay was strongly diluted (to lemon), but the black was not diluted.

So, lavender wouldn't work. You'd need Di, Cb or ig.
